His Excellency the President of Qassim University, Professor Dr. Khalid bin Abdulrahman Al-Humaidi, affirmed that humanity is living in the knowledge era, which has become a fundamental pillar in building what is now called the \"knowledge society\" and the \"knowledge economy.\" The knowledge society is a society that succeeds in innovating, transferring, exchanging, utilizing, reshaping, preserving, and accumulating knowledge. The development of this society is built on several pillars: the entrenchment of knowledge values, a developed educational system, a strong foundation of technology and communication networks, trained and qualified human resources, and an environment that stimulates research and innovation. As for the knowledge economy, it is<\/span> <\/span>That economy which<\/span> <\/span>depends<\/span> <\/span>On<\/span> <\/span>Industries<\/span> <\/span>Cognitive<\/span> <\/span> And commodification of knowledge and its investment<\/span> <\/span>Effectively<\/span> <\/span>To achieve<\/span> <\/span>Development<\/span> <\/span>Economic<\/span> <\/span>and social in light of the availability of the components of a knowledge society. <\/span><\/div>
This came during His Excellency's opening of the Knowledge Economy seminar, organized by the College of Economics and Management at the university, with the participation of experts from inside and outside the Kingdom on Tuesday morning at the university city.<\/span><\/div>
His Excellency said in a working paper he delivered at the symposium's main session, titled (The Role of Qassim University in Building a Knowledge Society: The University's Message): It is necessary<\/span> <\/span>To<\/span> <\/span>I<\/span> <\/span>Signal<\/span> <\/span>To<\/span> <\/span>Truth<\/span>Example<\/span> <\/span>lies in<\/span> <\/span>In<\/span> <\/span>Developed countries prioritize acquiring, transferring, exchanging, and utilizing knowledge, and supporting skill-building domains and training competitive competencies that benefit economic and social sectors, thereby increasing their capacity to form components of the knowledge economy. Our Saudi universities found an opportune moment to start where others left off, in response to the noble royal directives that the Kingdom places great importance on scientific research, development, and transformation towards human development as the cornerstone and ultimate goal of progress. This approach has been adopted by the Ministry of Higher Education, which has called upon universities to assume their responsibility towards it.<\/span>.<\/span> The government, represented by the Ministry of Economy and Planning, has sought to stimulate the private sector to increase its role in building a knowledge economy, while expanding the areas of partnership between the private sector and the research and development system to build a knowledge society. This is a central goal in the ninth and tenth development plans, and it is clearly evident in the National Strategy for the Transformation into a Knowledge Society, noting the interest<\/span> <\/span>University<\/span> <\/span>Qassim<\/span> <\/span>From a cognitive perspective<\/span> <\/span>Source<\/span> <\/span>I<\/span> <\/span>Her message<\/span> <\/span>Which<\/span>Established<\/span> <\/span>I<\/span> <\/span>Postpone it, for the university<\/span> <\/span>Interested<\/span> <\/span>Building<\/span> <\/span>Status<\/span> <\/span>I<\/span> <\/span>Balance<\/span> <\/span>Between<\/span> <\/span>Activity<\/span> <\/span>The Academic<\/span> <\/span>Encouragement<\/span> <\/span>Search<\/span> <\/span>Scientific<\/span> <\/span>And providing opportunities for connection with partners <\/span> <\/span>For more<\/span> <\/span>I<\/span> <\/span>Interaction<\/span> <\/span>Between<\/span> <\/span>Researchers<\/span> <\/span>To<\/span>Side<\/span> <\/span>Her interest<\/span> <\/span>At your service<\/span> <\/span>The local community<\/span> <\/span>I<\/span> <\/span>Another aspect<\/span>< <\/span>Referring to <\/span>The university seeks to continue activating the Sustainable Development Center, which began its work last year and is chaired by His Royal Highness Prince Faisal bin Mishal bin Saud bin Abdulaziz, Deputy Governor of Al-Qassim Region. The university has also been keen to establish a Waqf Council and an International Advisory Council, all of which requires constant communication with private sector partners, promoting best practices, and exchanging expertise to help it improve its intended community services and achieve excellence in its outcomes.<\/span> <\/span>and its relationships with its partners according to a strategic direction based on the concept of the knowledge economy and its components. In this way, the university responds to the most important development issues and adds a new dimension to its role in community services, which is contributing to the generation of<\/span> <\/span>Knowledge<\/span> <\/span>And enhance the knowledge base<\/span> <\/span>Human resources in the Qassim region and preparation<\/span> <\/span>Individual<\/span> <\/span>Provider<\/span> <\/span>With these perceptions<\/span> <\/span>Cognitive<\/span> <\/span>for the purpose of<\/span> <\/span>Building<\/span> <\/span>Community<\/span> <\/span>Introduction<\/span> <\/span>Sophisticated.<\/span><\/div>
Driven by the university's commitment and the concern of many stakeholders to fulfill their social responsibilities, the idea of establishing Qassim Valley for Technology and an Entrepreneurship Institute emerged for the \"creative adoption\" of knowledge applications. This is to make the knowledge economy a fundamental pillar for building a knowledge society within a context where we strive to achieve sustainable development, leading us to the ultimate goal of all these efforts: societal progress, improved quality of life, and meeting the needs of present and future generations. This is what our wise government is pursuing through the strategic objectives of development plans, and what the Ministry of Economy and Planning aspires to, as it plans the transition towards a knowledge economy and society, sensing its social responsibility and national duty.<\/span><\/div>
Dean of the College of Economics and Management at Qassim University, Dr. Obaid Al-Mutairi, confirmed that the college organizes this symposium as part of its mission to graduate qualified competencies capable of innovation and competition in serving development issues, pointing out that the college seeks through its mission <\/span>To serve community development issues, in addition to education and<\/span>Search<\/span> <\/span>Science<\/span>i.<\/span><\/div>

He also noted that the symposium comes at a time of growing global interest in economic development, pointing out that knowledge-based economies account for 71% of global GDP and are growing at an annual rate of 10% according to United Nations estimates<\/span><\/div>
Al-Mutairi pointed out that the college was keen to involve the relevant private and public sectors, especially the Ministry of Economy and Planning, the Ministry of Higher Education and King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology, in addition to Knowledge Economic City and a number of technology valley companies in the Kingdom, while clarifying the importance of raising community awareness about the knowledge economy to achieve community benefit from the job opportunities it can provide.<\/span>.<\/span><\/div>
At the conclusion of the main session, participants were honored, and then the seminar sessions continued, which included four sessions that highlighted the role of universities in contributing to the transition to a knowledge society.<\/span><\/div>
